Rachel Levine; Jade Dignam; Kirstine Shrubsole; Marie-Pier McSween; Annie J. Hill; David A. Copland – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2025
Background: Intensive comprehensive aphasia programmes (ICAPs) deliver intensive aphasia rehabilitation via a cohort approach, aligning with the World Health Organization's (WHO) International Classification for Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). ICAPs are an effective treatment approach for aphasia rehabilitation, and their implementation…

Purpose: Individuals with aphasia identify discourse-level communication (i.e., language in use) as a high priority for treatment. The central premise of most aphasia treatments is that restoring language at the phoneme, word, and/or sentence level will generalize to discourse. However, treatment-related changes in discourse-level communication…

Purpose: Speech and language pathologists (SLP) are frequently consulted for guidance on the management of oral solid medications. However, the extent to which SLPs consider solid medication intake during swallowing examination remains unclear. The present study endeavoured to find out whether and how SLPs assess patients' ability to swallow solid…

The Role of Speech and Language Therapists (SLTs) in International Stroke Teams: A Systematic Review
Marina Charalambous; John E. Pierce; Georgia Pastou; Erasmia Kola; Sean I. Savitz – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2025
Background: Current published guidelines suggest that speech and language therapists (SLTs) should be part of stroke teams, but their involvement and roles according to country income are unknown. Aims: This review aims to (1) investigate the level of involvement of SLTs in acute stroke management, rehabilitation, and long-term care, and (2)…

Purpose: Neurogenic speech and language disorders--such as acquired apraxia of speech (AOS) and aphasia with phonemic paraphasia (APP)--are often misdiagnosed due to similarities in clinical presentation. Word syllable duration (WSD)--a measure of average syllable length in multisyllabic words--serves as a proxy for speech rate, which is an…

Savannah H. Cliatt; Hannah Krimm – Teaching and Learning in Communication Sciences & Disorders, 2025
The purpose of this study was to investigate changes in knowledge of post-stroke aphasia among students who watched an informational video (Kennedy et al., 2012a) created for this study compared to students who read an informational text (National Aphasia Association, n.d.). Participants included 136 undergraduate and graduate students who…

Introduction: Life with aphasia affects the whole family with shorter, less frequent conversations, frustration, reduced social networks, isolation and tension in relationships. Evidence suggests communication partner training (CPT) benefits families. However, expected improvements are poorly articulated. The Aphasia Partnership Training (APT)…

Marie-Pier McSween; Tasman Day; Jessica Hill; Sarah J. Wallace – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: There is increasing interest in the incorporation of animal-assisted services (AAS) in therapy for adults with acquired neurogenic communication disorders. AAS have the potential to enhance speech and language therapy engagement and outcomes. However, a greater understanding of the nature and potential benefits of these interventions…

Sophie Chalmers; Fiona Gillies; Sarah Wallace – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Based on stakeholder conversations, speech and language therapists have anecdotally observed cases of dysphagia with suspected laryngeal hypersensitivity. These presentations have been coined as 'muscle tension dysphagia' often with concurrent laryngeal sensitivity symptoms. However, the role of laryngeal hypersensitivity in dysphagia…

Anna Caute; Abi Roper; Lucy Dipper; Brielle C. Stark – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2025
Background: Gesture and speech collaborate in conveying meaning, and gesture is often leveraged by people with neurogenic communication disorders, such as aphasia, cognitive-communicative impairments and primary progressive aphasia, when words fail them. Because gesture is imagistic, transitory and holistic, there are inherent challenges when…

Brianne Roos; Gretchen Szabo; Tami Brancamp; Elizabeth Hoover; Chaleece Sandberg; Tom W. Sather – Teaching and Learning in Communication Sciences & Disorders, 2025
Although individuals with aphasia are commonly treated by speech-language pathologists, many clinicians entering the field feel under-prepared to work with this population. Undergraduate and graduate students need appropriate training that emphasizes person-centered care mapped onto evidence-based practice, combining high-quality research…

Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is an acquired neurological disorder primarily affecting physical and visual functioning. There is a lack of empirical evidence in the existing literature about the nature of speech, language, and cognitive deficits associated with NMOSD. Hence, this case study provides assessment information about a…

Keren Kankam; Laura Murray – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Aphasia, a common consequence of stroke, which affects both communication and social functioning, and in turn, quality of life, is on the rise due to increases in stroke prevalence and survival rate. The rehabilitation of post-stroke aphasia primarily falls within the purview of speech-language pathology and research supports the…

Amanda Comer; Sarah Northcott; Nicholas Behn; Abi Roper; Niamh Devane; Katerina Hilari – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2025
Background: Stroke care in the UK was significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, with many services switching to telehealth. Post-pandemic, a UK survey of speech and language therapists (SLTs) working with people with aphasia (PWA) showed the vast majority planned to continue to use telehealth alongside in-person intervention. Telehealth is…

Monnelly, Katie; Marshall, Jane; Dipper, Lucy; Cruice, Madeline – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: Research evidence suggests aphasia therapy must be delivered at high intensity to effect change. Comprehensive therapy, addressing all domains of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health, is also called for by people with aphasia and their families. However, aphasia therapy is rarely intense or…
